No thank you, sir!

The colorful orb weaver spider pic was beautiful. The synchronized fishing pic was engaging and incredible. The pitcher plants were absolutely new for me and make me appreciate the wonders of our incredible planet all over again.

The phrase "rain-triggered breeding" got my imagination stirred up.
